DT2 0QR is a postal code used within the United Kingdom for delivering mail.

Postcodes are made up of two parts. The part before the space (DT2) is called the outward code. The part after the space (0QR) is called the inward code. The letters C, I, K, M, O and V are not allowed in the inward code. In addition to the inward and outward code, the postcode can be broken up into four parts:

Postal Area. In our case DT which means Dorchester.
Postal District. In our case DT2.
Postal Sector. In our case DT2 0.
Postcode Unit. The last two letters. In our case QR.

The regional mail center for the post area DT is the South West Distribution Centre, which is located at Western Approach, Distribution Park, Severn Beach, BRISTOL, BS35 4GG.

The final port of call for any post addressed to the DT2 0QR postcode is the local delivery office (DO) which is DORCHESTER DO. Here the post will be sorted ready for delivery.

It is situated within the post town of DORCHESTER within the old postal county of Dorset.
